I just discovered a Kids' WB! promo from 2000 that uses footage from the Bulbasaur lecture.

'''Pokémon {{wp|senryū}}''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン川柳''') are {{wp|haiku}}-like poems about Pokémon or Pokémon-related themes. Composing them is a hobby of Professor Oak usually used to close his lectures in the anime. Senryū are generally light-hearted or humorous, and they consist of three lines with 17 or fewer {{wp|morae}}. Unlike haiku, senryū do not require a {{wp|kigo}} (season word). The art form was created in the {{wp|Edo era}} of real-world Japan by Senryū Karai (柄井川柳, 1718-1790). | '''Pokémon {{wp|senryū}}''' (Japanese: '''ポケモン川柳''') are {{wp|haiku}}-like poems about Pokémon or Pokémon-related themes.

The segment has never been used in the English dub and those based on it, though footage from the lecture of {{p|Alakazam}} was used to introduce the VHS release of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''. Also, segments for Slowpoke, Starmie, and Marowak were dubbed for a promotional VHS tape called "[[Pokémon Insider: The Video]]." Footage from the lecture of {{p|Entei}} was also used on a promotional CD-ROM released in the UK to promote {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s}}. | The segment has never been used in the English dub and those based on it, though footage from the lecture of {{p|Alakazam}} was used to introduce the VHS release of ''[[M01|Mewtwo Strikes Back]]''.
